In our nursery we have various forms of one plant. Plants are living beings and so they are sometimes different. Variations in color and size are therefore possible.

The pictures shown with our products are sample pictures. These photos give a true picture of what the plant may look like when properly cared for. The specifications are leading for the plant received. Please read the characteristics carefully before ordering.

What are sample images?

We have an extremely large, extensive assortment with thousands of plants. In addition, because specific plants change in shape, color and size on a weekly basis, it is impossible for our small team to capture all specific plants. Each plant grows in a unique way, so it is perfectly normal that there may be differences in color, shape and size.

But because we do want to communicate clearly to you what to expect with a product, we have specifications for each plant that will give you a clear picture of what to expect.

It is therefore rare that you will receive the exact plant shown in the picture. If this is the case, it will be explicitly mentioned in the product description. Our goal is to ensure that you have a pleasant, green shopping experience and that you can shop with us worry-free.

For people who like to browse among the plants, we have a physical store. Check the contact page for opening hours and more info.

Description

The Monstera adansonii variegated ‘Albo' is one of the most sought-after houseplants among variegation enthusiasts. This climbing tropical plant attracts immediate attention with its striking leaves with white to cream patches and natural perforations. A rare appearance that with proper care can grow in your interior for years.

Origin

This species is native to Central and South America, where it climbs up trees in the rainforest as an epiphyte. The variegata-form is a rare mutation preserved only in culture. 'Albo' refers to the white variegation, which can occur spontaneously and is extremely difficult to propagate.

Characteristics

The plant is characterized by narrow, oval leaves with natural holes (fenestrations) and a variegated pattern of white or cream against deep green. Each plant has a unique leaf pattern - no two leaves are the same. The white parts contain no chlorophyll, which makes growth slower than the green form, but the aesthetic value is all the higher. The plant grows slenderly and has aerial roots with which it clings to a moss stick or other support material.

Care

Light

The Monstera adansonii ‘Albo' needs bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as the white parts can burn. However, too little light slows growth and reduces the likelihood of new variegated leaves.

Temperature

Feels best at a constant temperature between 18 and 28 °C. Avoid drafts and temperature fluctuations.

Substrate

Use an airy, well-draining substrate based on such materials as coconut chips, bark, and sphagnum. This allows the roots to breathe freely and prevents root rot.

Humidity

High humidity (65% or more) promotes growth and keeps leaves healthy. In drier rooms, a humidifier or regular misting can help. Ensure good airflow (no drafts) against mold and bacterial growth.

Watering

Give demineralized water or clean rainwater as soon as the top few inches of the substrate feel dry. Keeping too wet quickly leads to root problems, especially with plants in dense pots. Preferably use a pot with drainage holes.

Nutrition

During the growing season (spring and summer), fertilize once a month with a diluted, balanced nutrition for green houseplants. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can cause damage to the roots.

Flowering

Flowering is extremely rare indoors and not the main purpose of this plant. In its natural habitat, it can develop an arum-like inflorescence, but this rarely happens under living room conditions.
